Answer:
Part A : D.)
Part B : Length of the sandbox is 10 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Perimeter = 29 ft
We need to find the equation for the perimeter and also the length of the sandbox.
Solution,
Let the width of the sandbox be 'w'.
Now as per question said;
The length of the sandbox is 1 foot longer than twice the width of the sandbox.
So we can say that;
Length =
Now we know that the perimeter is equal to the sum of twice of length and width.
framing in equation form, we get;
Perimeter =
we have given the perimeter, so on substituting the value, we get;
Hence The equation used to find the width is .
Now we solve for 'w'.
Applying distributive property, we get;
Subtracting both side by '2' we get
Dividing both side by 6 we get;
Width of the sandbox = 4.5 ft
Length of the sandbox =
Hence Length of the sandbox is 10 feet.
The base's length is 8 and it's width is 7, so it's perimeter will be 
. To find the lateral area you shoul multiply this with it's height. So, 
(h is height).
When you see a "%" you need to ask " a percent of what"?
Here, it's a percent of the original prize, so the discount is 20% of the original prize, that is 20% of 35.
20% is also 20/100 or 1/5, so we can calculate this like this:
so the discount is 7 dollars.
